joel aron Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Well, I'm now a regular. <br><br> I do fear, however, that one night may end with me missing a tooth, and my M6 in several wrinkled, and fractured shapes. <br><br> With the bartenders on my side, I shot all night last Saturday. I'm putting the series together, along with my images from my last visit. These new images have a more relaxed tone to them, as I was not shy with the camera, and had it either around my neck in the open, or always in one hand ready to shoot. It shows with the images. <br><br> This time around, shooting only Fuji Neopan 1600, pulled one stop, and developed in a softer mix of Microdol-x, going 1:1 for nearly 14 min, and softly agitating every min. <br><br> I'll post the full series later this month when my day job frees me up a bit. <br><br> <a href=" title="Photo Sharing"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1071/525918368_a0bf86f4a0.jpg" width="500" height="331" alt="Silver Peso 'solids win'" /></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob F. Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Nice going so far, I just have one observation. Shooting Neopan 1600 at 800 is not really a "pull." It's really less of a push. Neopan has a true ISO of 640. That said, you are definitely on the right track to shoot it at 800. It looks really good, thereabouts. Pushed to 1600 it looks pretty bad, IMHO. Also try D-76 1:1.

wgpinc Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Maybe next time you can hit the Maybe next time you can hit the 2A.M. Club! Both from my Marin County Portfolio.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel aron Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 Ahh... well, if only the 2am club were within drunk walk distance. ;) So, seriously, Neopan 1600 is ISO rated at 640!? That's wild. I'll have to try 400, and see what I get. I was going to try D-76.. but was concerned about losing detail. The 1:1 dilution helps that I guess? I'll go grab a gallon and try it out this weekend. Thanks for the tips! ..and Clive, thank you! I am being *very* critical in my choices so far for the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
